I placed some emails to Sal at Zaino and David at Optimum regarding putting Zaino and OCW on fresh paint. In all the threads I have been reading about what to put on fresh paint, most suggest a glaze is all that can be done. Well, I cant do that. I tried to put some #7 on this weekend and it...

Today was a clients 2002 Chevy 2500HD that he uses as a work/junk truck. He called me and told me to "do what needs to be done" to the thing to make it purdy. I arrived at 5:30 and saw that the truck was trashed, but it looked fun. Took me about 3 hours to finish the truck, and 1hr of that was...

I am going to start my detailing buisness full time 5days a week this summer. I was going to pusue a job related to my college degree, but there just isnt a demand for a part time tractor salesman. There is a major demand, however, for car detailing in my area. I am having to turn down detail...

I am getting my truck back from the body shop soon, and after I wash it, i'm sure I would want to QD the thing. I dont, however, want to leave anything on the paint. Is there a QD that just cleans, and does not leave any wax? Brandon
